Up To 7 Mic Positions Provide Unsurpassed Flexibility!

Thanks to the many, many microphones Auddict used to record this library you can’t help but feel the power of the Taikos, the unique sound of the Djembe and the crack of the Tabor. These drums are life-like and brilliantly sampled, as opposed to some others that can sound dull and muddy.

To ensure that they did not miss out on a single quality that these magnificent instruments had to offer, Auddict took the decision to recorded with up to seven mic positions!

3 mic position – this version is a professionally produced, with a CLOSE, MID and FAR perspectives, each mic carefully chosen to bring out the character of each instrument.

7 mic position – this uses direct mic feeds (un-produced), with perspectives in order from close to distant, so that you can go deeper into the sound, allowing you to individually sculpt the sound of each drum to your own liking.

This library includes two versions of each drum – a seven mic position version, and a three mic position version (Ships Bell and Tam-Tam are 3 microphone only).

18 Patches of Deeply Sampled Percussion Maximum Impact!

Weighing in at 12GB of sampled material and consisting of 18 individual patches, “Drums of the Deep” was deeply-sampled with one aim in mind… to ensure that your music performance/playback is as natural and versatile as possible! Dynamic layers are numerous (up to seven) as are round robins (up to seven per dynamic layer)… giving you an astounding 49 variations per drum!

Even if the drums provided weren’t already impressive enough on their own (they are!), you can take things even further with some experimentation, by stacking and mixing a Taiko and Deep Drum for instance and sculpting a sound that is guaranteed to make you speakers shake!

Also provided are Hi/Low cut EQ filters and the ability to alter the tuning of the individual drums. This flexibility along with the impeccable sound quality and 3 Mic/7 Mic patches allow for an endless combination of tweaking!

N.B. Requires the FULL retail version of Kontakt 4 or higher (not compatible with Player)
